Insulation Colour Code:
1 Conductor - Black
3 Conductors - Black, Red, White #14 - #2
4 Conductors - Black, Red, Blue, White #14 - #2
Black Insulation with white printed numbers #1 and larger

**Compact aluminum ACM conductors are aluminum alloy #8030.

****Assuming 4th conductor is the neutral of a balanced 3-phase 4 wire system.

#Conductor is compressed stranding not compact.

##For 3-wire 120/240 V and 120/208 V service conductors for single dwellings, or for feeder conductors supplying single dwelling units of row housing, of apartments and similar buildings, and sized in accordance with Rules 8-200(1), 8-200(2) and 8-202(1), the allowable ampacity for aluminum sizes No. 6, No. 2 and NO. 4/0 AWG shall be 60 A, 100 A and 200 A respectively. In this case, the 5% adjustment of Rule 8-106(1) cannot be applied.
